    Consider the Cross Correlations for Australian end of day data for the combined:


    • ASX Equities
    • Australian indices
    • Commodities
    • Continuous futures
    • Economic indicators,
    • AU forex
    • World indices

    These together form a set of 7000 EOD series.


    A simple cross correlation would involve 7000*7000/2 cross correlations =2.45*10^7 correlations


    Then add in a variable window size for the correlation going form 5 days to 2 years. Roughly increasing correlations to be performed by 500, leaving 2.45 * 10^7 = 1.2*10^10 correlations.

    Then add a variable lag from 0 days to 180 days, again increasing the number of correlations by 180

    Leading to 180* 1.2*10^10 correlations or approximately 2*10^12 correlations
    or roughly a 2 trillion correlations.



    Then check to see if there is any statistical significance with null hypothesis testings.


    I was wondering if there are any of the shelf finance/trading platforms that can do this or if anyone has done that.

    And what did they find in terms of significance.

    Also what platform/tool did they use.

    And if they did this did the use this in a predictor matrix.
